The phone rings in the
middle of the night,
My father yells
“What you gonna do with your life?”
Oh, daddy dear,
You know you’re still number one,
But girls, They wanna have fu-un,
Girls Just Want To Have Fun ~ Cyndi Lauper (1983)

This is my 2nd year participating in the Blogathon as a sponsor, and I’m really excited to be a part of it again! Also, for the 2nd year in a row, I’ll be staying up for 24 hours cheering on my sponsored bloggers. I’ve got caffeinated beverages, snacks, and NO KIDS for the entire weekend. I’ll get to pretend I’m a teenager home alone.
What happens during the Blogathon? For 24 hours, bloggers from all over stay awake and post every 30 minutes to raise money for the charity of their choosing. I usually try to sponsor two bloggers but this year I was able to sponsor five!
Please consider making a pledge (every little bit helps!) if you can, or just as important, come visit the bloggers and cheer them on. I’ll be hanging out in the five blogs below during the blogathon — 6am Saturday to 6am Sunday PST — so come on over and play with me.
MY SPONSORED BLOGS
- Mike & Tish of BlogsWeLuv blogging for The Glaucoma Foundation
- Phelan of A Homesteading Neophyte blogging for Farm Aid
- Linda of Raven’s Roads blogging for Christian Children’s Fund
- Dayngr of Dayngrous Discourse blogging for Kiva
- Kat of My Single Mom Life blogging for Montel Williams MS
Walter (the Win Stuff! guy) is on vacation, so he called in his friend Tony Little to fill in for him to hawk cool prizes in my blog until he gets back. Tony really wants you to win one of these extra-special, magical, way-too-cool for words polliwogs, and so do I. They are rumored to bring good luck to the people who have them, love too.
So, you want to know how to win a polliwog? Just head over to BlogsWeLuv and follow their instructions to enter the contest. I’ve donated 12 of them so you still have a great chance. Hurry! Go now! You can dooooooo it!
